Implication

Observational analysis identified treatment delays and worse mortality in adolescents and young adults with acute leukemias, indicating socioeconomic factors play a crucial role.

Key Points

Treatment delays were more common for adolescents and young adults at low-volume facilities, leading to worse outcomes.
High-volume center care resulted in higher survival rates than low-volume centers, suggesting facility impact on prognosis.
Logistic regression analysis revealed significant relationships between socioeconomic status and treatment access inequities.
Disparities persist, particularly for racial and insurance status, highlighting the need for improved referral pathways to enhance care.
